OPINION

ODOM, Judge.

This is an appeal from the order of the court, after habeas corpus hearing, remanding appellant to custody for extradition to the State of California.

The record reflects that appellant was taken into custody on the basis of a fugitive warrant, alleging possession of marihuana, issuing from the State of California.

The sufficiency of the supporting papers as a basis for the issuance of an Executive Warrant by the Governor of Texas is challenged and it is urged that a fatal variance exists between the Executive Warrant and the requisition instruments from California.
